TL;DR: Spectra and high-resolution images obtained by the Huygens Probe Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer instrument in Titan's atmosphere reveal the traces of once flowing liquid, and like Earth, the brighter highland regions show complex systems draining into flat, dark lowlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties of dust in the Martian atmosphere from the Imager on Mars Pathfinder
TL;DR: The Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) returned sequences of images of the Martian sky characterizing the size distribution, optical constants, and nature of the aerosols suspended in the atmosphere of Mars as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model of Titan's aerosols based on measurements made inside the atmosphere

TL;DR: The descent imager/spectral radiometer (DISR) instrument aboard the Huygens probe into the atmosphere of Titan measured the brightness of sunlight using a complement of spectrometers, photometers, and cameras that looked both upward and downward, and made measurements at altitudes from 150 km to the surface as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Results from the Mars Pathfinder camera.

TL;DR: Images of the martian surface returned by the Imager for Mars Pathfinder (IMP) show a complex surface of ridges and troughs covered by rocks that have been transported and modified by fluvial, aeolian, and impact processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clouds, aerosols, and photochemistry in the Jovian atmosphere
TL;DR: In this paper, the development status of concepts for cloud and aerosol compositions, vertical and horizontal distributions, and microphysical properties, in the Jovian upper troposphere and stratosphere are assessed.
